Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] best-nexus.digital: Confirmed Phishing Site Targeting Cloud Analysis of best-nexus.digital reveals a recently established domain exhibiting high-risk phishing characteristics. Registered on July 25, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, the domain is already flagged by one security vendor on VirusTotal and appears on the PhishDestroy blocklist, confirming its malicious classification. Infrastructure analysis indicates the domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, a Cloudflare-hosted endpoint, with nameservers adel.ns.cloudflare.com and javon.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting the use of Cloudflare's services for anonymization and resilience. The domain remains active as of July 28, 2026, with no indications of takedown or mitigation efforts. The limited detection footprint—only one vendor flagging the domain—may reflect its recent deployment rather than low confidence in its malicious nature. The absence of additional blocklist entries or Safe Browsing warnings does not diminish the risk, as phishing campaigns often evade initial detection through rapid deployment and infrastructure obfuscation. The registrar, NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, has been associated with other high-risk domains, though this alone does not confirm intent. No specific brand target or phishing kit is identified in the available data, and the exact content of the site remains unanalyzed. However, the combination of a new registration, Cloudflare hosting, and early blocklist inclusion strongly suggests a phishing operation targeting cloud service credentials or generic login portals. Defenders should treat this domain as actively malicious and implement immediate blocking at the DNS, network, and endpoint levels. Security teams are advised to monitor for connections to 188.114.97.3 and correlate logs for any user interaction with best-nexus.digital. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 27d1638c77a3a30fb9f827494290729a TLS cert SHA-256: 8f84ecd52d2c2ec264f91db0a4b5d9bc69f035652f1ee9741d8e71206d3d856b ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/best-nexus.digital/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=best-nexus.digital Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
